Over 70 short films and animations were shown at the event produced by NYIT students, faculty and alumni. Global contributions and the panel discussion between student producers and the audience were a few strong highlights of the event. The Animations shown at the end of the day drew a big crowd. The planning of next year’s festival is under way.
